The Fourdom of Answer 4 is a mammoth, orderly nation, ruled by Four-um Mod with an iron fist, and renowned for its parental licensing program, sprawling nuclear power plants, and lack of airports. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 7.322 billion Aforians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fourth Fort Fourmosa. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 78.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Aforian economy, worth a remarkable 1,053 trillion Quarters a year, is quite specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Retail, Uranium Mining, Furniture Restoration, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is an impressive 143,813 Quarters, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 535,499 per year while the poor average 27,109, a ratio of 19.8 to 1.

Answer 4's national animal is the Four Legged Animal, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Fourian Messianic Monotheism.
